Overview

What is Siberian Paganism?

Siberian Paganism refers to the ethnic religions practiced by the Siberian indigenous ethnic groups. These communities have their unique traditions, culture, and spiritual practices, which are carried forward from one generation to another.

Core Beliefs and Practices

The followers of Siberian Paganism often believe in the existence of numerous spirits and deities inhabiting the world around them. These spirits are thought to influence human life, and appeasing them is a crucial part of these spiritual practices. Therefore, various rituals, elaborate sacrifices, and ceremonies play an essential role in Siberian Paganism.

One significant practice observed is Shamanism. The shamans act as intermediaries between the human world and the spiritual realm, using their abilities to heal, tell fortunes, and perform rituals.

Notable Deities

The mythology and pantheon in Siberian Paganism are abundant and varied. However, there are some deities which are prominent across multiple Siberian cultures.

  • Ongon: Household spirits who are thought to protect family members. They are enshrined in special household shrines.

  • Tengri: The sky god, who is often portrayed as the supreme god in Turkic and Mongol cultures.

  • Ülgen: God of goodness and light, another prominent figure in Turkic and Mongol mythology.

Modern Interpretation

Despite years of suppression and influence of other religions, Siberian Paganism has survived and is currently going through a revival. Many indigenous communities are reconnecting with their ancient traditions and continuing the practices that have been part of their cultural heritage for centuries.

Importance of Preservation

Preserving such diverse spiritual practices is of utmost importance. They provide a unique insight into the worldview of the Siberian indigenous groups and contribute to our understanding of the human spiritual journey. At present, these practices, along with their associated languages and folklore, are considered intangible cultural heritage worthy of protection.

In conclusion, Siberian Paganism is a prime example of indigenous spiritual traditions. Enriched with intriguing rituals, deities, and beliefs, it provides a glimpse into the intricate tapestry of human spirituality. Also, it showcases the resilience of indigenous cultures, embodying their strength and indomitable spirit.

In-Game Description

Siberians believe in a horizontal world where men and beasts all live in clans, linked together through alliance or vengeance. Hunting is a core part of the equilibrium between taking and giving life, and with death all souls travel downstream to reincarnate in the clan they lived in previously.

Siberian Paganism, also known as Tengrism, is an ancient faith prevalent among the Turkic and Mongolic peoples in Siberia, characterized by shamanism, animism, totemism, polytheism, and ancestor worship. It believes in the "Eternal Blue Sky" (Tengri) as the supreme power and involves practices aimed at harmony with nature and the spirit world.
